| Who the hell carries binoculars in the courthouse? Mike Snover. |
Snover appealed Judge Koury's denial late Thursday. The Commonwealth Court directed that appeals be filed no later than 3 pm on Friday. Attorney Gary Asteak rushed back to his office to prepare and submit the required brief. President Judge Koury also issued an opinion explaining his ruling.
He denied preliminary injunctive relief because that requires a showing of "immediate and irreparable harm." This is where Republicans founder.
"[T]he Northampton County Republican Committee would not be harmed in any way by allowing these votes to be cast by provisional ballot because they can be challenged after the election on the ground that disclosure was prohibited under the statute. In contrast, preventing these affected individuals from casting provisional ballots would constitute substantial and irreparable harm because those individuals who took a number of affirmative steps in an effort to vote in this election would have their votes invalidated without any real opportunity to cure its deficiencies."
Judge Koury adds that the GOP failed to call a single witness to show immediate and irreparable harm. Having failed to establish this prerequisite to injunctive relief, he denied it.
So after forcing Attorney Gary Asteak to write a brief and the President Judge to issue an opinion, what did Snover do?
Nothing.
He withdrew his appeal after making everyone spin their wheels.
This should really help him when he starts challenging provisional ballots.

38 ballots is a very low rejection rate. Excellent. And kudos to you Bernie for predicting that the number of ballots returned between Wed and Fri would only be a "handful". It was 8,000 across the state, which means it was probably only a few hundred. Bottom line is the vast majority of mail in ballots arrived on time, and were properly cast.
Mike Snover carriers binoculars everywhere, he uses them to find his johnson.
38 votes, Come on Bernie! Lee needs to flip the County red!! Now instead of telling everyone she won the county for Trump in 2016, she will have to tell how it was everyone else's fault he lost the county. Maybe Mike Snover realizes what a tool he and his wife are, He was searching for exit with the binoculars?!?!?
Bernie, I am surprised you let 12:08 AM be posted when you don't let anyone say anything about your elected official, McClure. Double standards. You probably will not post this.
"So after forcing Attorney Gary Asteak to write a brief and the President Judge to issue an opinion, what did Snover do? Nothing. He withdrew his appeal after making everyone spin their wheels."
You forgot to add "and after making empty noise and splashy headlines."
Oh, and the binoculars? He's still searching for voter fraud evidence.
he's using the binocs to look for anyone credible who buys their bullshit
If one side sees Trump as an Hitlerian monster, existential threat to democracy and the country's security, wouldn't they do anything to protect the republic? Wouldn't it have been cowardly to sit back and not go to any lengths to remove the threat? Perhaps the same team that didn't want to take chances with voters re: and LGBTQ referendum? Would this extremism in defense of liberty be no vice? It certainly seems so here.
8:47, I see Trump as a monster, but would not break the very laws I say he fails to uphold. In other words, the ends never justify the means. So the answer to your question is No. If I saw any election cheating, I would report it. I just worked an election and tried to be helpful to everyone,.including those who support Trump. Do not equate us with the dishonest man in the White House.
"Bernie, I am surprised you let 12:08 AM be posted when you don't let anyone say anything about your elected official, McClure. Double standards. You probably will not post this."
I published this comment to show how obsessed you are with McClure and your irrational attempts to make everything about him. I should not have published the comment at 12:08 but it was too damn funny to pass up. Wish I had written it. I think even Snover would laugh.
Wouldn't all of this time, energy and money that the Republican party is ultimately wasting on lawyers in this fruitless wild goose chase for voter fraud be better used in the upcoming Georgia Senate run offs?
I've seen better spending decisions by near comatose drunks at 2:30AM on the poker tables in Atlantic City.
How the Koch Brothers, Sheldon Adelson and other Republican mega donors keep forking their cash over for this makes me question just how smart they really are.
How long did it take for Muncie to crow about how he Won Norco with all his hard work?
These people have nothing. Why, oh why, won't courts assess attorney's fees for frivolous suits more often?
Guess there is really isn't anonymity on this site to you.
